1fr. Clay was tall and broad Ehouldpred
without being bulky or flcshy, and when
af a1l excited was Of stately and command
ing presence. Though his long limbs
were loosely put together, yet his manner
was neither awkward nor uncouth, nor
even embarrassed; on the contrary, ii,
was easy and natural, and wholly unprc-
tentious-it was the easy, nonchalant air
Of a man accustomed to the ways Of the
world, and conscious that he was at least
the peer of the foremost Ia every crowd
in which he happened to be. Indeed, my
own opinion is that he was never in the
slightest degree, even in his carly youth,
awed by the presence of any one; no
never seemed to feel, and my belief Is no
never felt, that he was ever ct any timo
in the presence Of any one superior to
himself. And, therefore. he wac not only
strikingly at ease, but ct home, wherever
he was, whether among his neighbors or
strangers, whether at a social gathering
or at the bar, or as the speaker Of the
house of representatives, or on the floor
Of the senate; and, in my judgment, he
would have felt equally at home at aeon
ference with kings and emperors.
He seemed TO have not only an instinc-
tive consciousness of his own strength,
but of his own special capacity for leader
ship. Therefore, he would take tho lead
to himself as if unconsciously, whatever
the occasion, and as naturally and as
gracefully as if it were his birthright;
and few there were, il any, who ever
seemed to be surprised that he had taken
the place for which nature seemed to have
designed him. Indeed, without any APP
pearance of self-assertion on his part, and
as if unconsciousIy to himself, there was
something in his presence and his man
ner that gave to him an authoritative
air, and made him for the time the CEN
trail, the commanding figure of the group
about him.-The Century.

The critical reader, especially II he has

was in love with all bees and with one

honey than that flies are caught by
molasses. 1t is very fascinating and
has interested persons of great intellect
and sound judgement in all ages and
countries. That IL serves to turn the
heads" of many people every year is
certain. Bookkeeping is often repre-
scented MS business that combines pleas
ure and profit, and many are looking
after employment of that kind. Many
are lead to believe that all the hard
work of obtaining honey is performed
by bees, and that their owner has moth
ing to do but "boss the sit. They are
not likely TO ascertain anything to the
contrary till they learn it in the hard
and expensive school of experience.
Few articles and no entire books have
been written on the cost, trials, annoy
ances, troubles, and failures of bee
keepers The stories of those who fail
in deriving either pleasure or profit
from keeping bees are rarely ever
printed in newspapers, and are still
more rarely copied But enough of
them could be collected in almost any
county to fill large volume. For ev-

paragraph a, article 6, OF the treaty be-
tween the United. States and different
tribes of Sioux IRdians, concluded April
49, 1858, provides for the issuing of
patents to individual Indians, and CON
Guides as follows: 'And any Indian or
Indians receiving patent for land un-
der the foregoing provisions shall there
by, and from thenceiorth, become and
be ascitizen of the United States, and be
entitled to all the privileges and immuni.

she United States, With the right to
exercise the privilege of voting within
it's borders, and also that the santee In
dians have filled the other requirements
OF the state statute by having been long
residents OF the state, il is my opinion
that the said Indians have the right to
vote in said state on any and all ques-
tionn npon which any other citizen Of
the United States, or any other electors
OF that state has a right to vote. This
question, however, Is one which can be
determined only by the proper court.
